Chapter 9 Falling asleep
"I'm sleeping, I'm awake."
"Remember breathing, remember the heart beats-"
"Digestation, endocrine, lymph, urinary... in a slow and orderly work..."
In the Forecasting Pool, less than one meter deep, Yang Chu leaned against the edge of the pool, slowly closed his eyes, immersed himself in the system circulation in his body, and no longer had any external perception.
At the same time, his thinking was slowing down, making his consciousness seem to blend with the pool water around him, calm, occasionally rippling, but not completely lost.
This is a method he learned from a book about how to fall asleep while reading during the day.
A method that can immediately fall asleep, relax the body, and wake up quickly under any circumstances.
The time to rest and sleep is very short, but you can enter this state similar to a nap anytime and anywhere. It is very suitable for some people who are extremely busy with work and life and often cannot guarantee sleep.
This method of short-term sleep or intermittent sleep can often make people quickly enter the shallow level, and occasionally even enter a certain stage of deep sleep, thereby quickly restoring energy.
However, Yang Chu is not exactly the same when he adopts this approach.
In addition to letting his mind go away, he also needs to keep some consciousness moderately and maintain the circulation of major systems in his body.
This state-
In Yang Chu's view, it is actually similar to self-hypnosis and meditation.
In other words, if it is more vivid, it should be meditation and cultivation of internal skills in the popular martial arts novels in Hong Kong Island.
Perhaps it is because Yang Chu was mentally exhausted, or because others were in the water, etc.
Yang Chu's attempt this time was only a few short seconds. He no longer had any perception of the outside world. His mind was immersed in his body, and his consciousness fell into a state of sleep but not sleep.
It seems that only a part of the weak consciousness is still controlling the operation of major systems in his body after his self-hypnosis.
Time seems to be lengthening bit by bit, the frequency of breathing decreases, the interval between heartbeats becomes longer and longer, and other major systems only operate slowly after being stimulated by the faint consciousness.
Everything is silent.
Yang Chu's consciousness could feel that he was in a state of rest and recuperation, with blood flowing in his body, and the lymphatic system and endocrine system seemingly reacting and interacting with the brain.
And his still-maintained consciousness seemed to be back to the state he had when he first woke up in this body, and his consciousness seemed to be in darkness.
The difference is that at that time he could feel the dark space swallowing him little by little, and he could only try his best to break through.
And now, he seems to be in darkness, but he pulled the curtains on this darkness.
Darkness did not devour him, and merged with him, and his conscious thoughts spread in this darkness. And as long as he thought, darkness could immediately dissipate in one thought, and everything shines brightly.
In the outside world, Yang Chu, who was playing in the pool, slid from leaning against the tiled wall to the water, and floating on his back.
...
"Let's go, let's go, it's going to close!"
In the swimming pool of Sham Shui Po Park, Uncle Jian, a swimming pool manager who is over 50 years old, urging the people in the swimming pool that have not left the pool, around the main pool, sub-pool, diving pool, training pool and other pools.
He is a staff member of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, commonly known as the Leisure and Cultural Services Department in Hong Kong. From July to October, he is doing it every day when the swimming pool opens at 6 am and closes at 10 pm.
"Uncle Jian, let's play for a while!"
In the main pond with a length of 50 meters and a width of 21 meters, water depths of 1.4-1.9 meters, two teenagers who looked like they were thirteen or fourteen years old last year emerged from the water.
"Shangzi, come up quickly, I'm going to close the door. Also, the lifeguard is not here tonight, so you'd better travel in the sub-pool and not go to the deep water area."
Uncle Jian looked at the two twelve or three-year-old boys, urged them a few times and gave them careful instructions.
In the swimming pool, it is safe most of the time, but some accidents are inevitable.
It’s actually okay for novices. They have swimming rings and know how much they are, so they won’t do anything wrong. As long as you are careful, there will be less drowning.
What I fear most is actually these half-year-old boys, who are very versatile and can even thrive for a few times if they don’t know how to water. But in fact, they are still far behind, but they are braver.
The 1.9-meter main pool has a deep water area and a diving pool with a depth of more than 4 meters, these guys dare to go in. It was really dangerous if there were no lifeguards and safety officers that night.
"Zhila, Uncle Jian, let's go."
The two young boys sprinted a few more times without much fun, and then they reluctantly swam to the shore.
Uncle Jian, the administrator standing on the shore, shook his head gently and walked towards several other swimming pools.
When passing by the pool, the administrator Uncle Jian was slightly stunned.
"A pretty young man, why did you come here?"
Uncle Jian whispered to himself, and there was a figure floating on the water in the playground pool with his back facing the sky. He should be an adult in terms of body shape.
The water in the pool is just knee-high, and some older children are unwilling to play. Apart from accompanying the children, adults and women will hardly appear in such areas.
"Hey, it's going to close!"
Uncle Jian stood by the playing pool and shouted at the figure floating on the water.
But the image of the floating figure on the water was not heard.
"I heard that, it's closed, get up quickly!"
Uncle Jian frowned, walked a few more steps closer, and shouted loudly.
The man in the pool was still silent.
"What are you doing!"
Uncle Jian felt a little angry again. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly jumped into the playground pool.
"I won't be so weak that I'll catch up with you!"
The closer he got to the figure floating on the water, the more he was Uncle Jian's heart sinking.
It sounds incredible for outsiders to drown people by water that is only about 40 centimeters tall in the water pool, but Uncle Jian, who has been managing the swimming pool for decades, knows that this is not impossible.
People who have never been watered will choke no matter how shallow the water is.
Just like some people can drown in a washbasin, many things are completely unreasonable.
Her legs rolled up in the pool with a raucous sound of water, splashing everywhere.
Uncle Jian hugged the man floating on the water. Sure enough, the man was unconscious.
Without caring about anything else, Uncle Jian hurriedly hurriedly hugged the man from behind and dragged him out of the pool.
"Uncle Jian, what happened?"
On the shore of the swimming pool, the two teenagers had already climbed up and saw the administrator Uncle Jian dragging a person and running over together.
"Get out of the way!"
Uncle Jian dragged the man to the shore, stretched out his hand to pull the two boys aside, and reached out to press the chest of the man who was dragged by him.
He worked as an administrator here. Although he only did the job of opening and closing the door, checking and buying tickets, and occasionally helping with garbage cleaning, the Department of Resources and Culture has trained, and he also saw many lifeguards to save people. He was influenced by his eyes and would naturally ask for first aid.
But at this moment—
